Second stay at this lovely property for our daughter's graduation from UHart, the apartment is clean, spacious, and bright (bring an eye mask if you want to sleep in), love the animals (even the morning wake-up call from the beautiful roosters), especially the fresh eggs we bought when we left (delicious for breakfast the first morning after we got home!) Hosts are wonderful, very responsive and happy to chat about the farm. Great hikes nearby - we stayed an extra night this year so we were sure to have time to climb up to Hublein Tower in Talcott Mtn State Park right down the street. Wonderful restaurants in nearby West Hartford, Simsbury, and Bloomfield. Bittersweet that our daughter is done at UHart, would love another excuse to stay again.

Amazing apartment

What a spacious, amazing apartment on a beautiful farm. We were in town for our daughter's graduation from Univ. of Hartford, it's less than 15 minutes from campus, so a perfect spot and enough room for her to come over and us not all be cramped in a hotel room. Have already booked for next year's master's graduation ceremony. So much to do nearby, booked for an extra night so we have more time to hike and explore.

Special property!

How fun to stay above a hose barn in such a spectaular spot. The apartment was much more spacious than we expected and really fun! As we sat poolside for a little bit we watched Frank driving his tractor, heard animals chatting and played with the dogs. It was the perfect spot to call home during our high school reunion. Loved it and hope to return again some day!

About the host

Hosted by Julianne Roth

Host profile image
Hi there! We are Julianne and Frank. We traded the hustle and grind of the business world to become farmers in 2020, and we haven't looked back since! When we are not being farmers, we love to travel the world and meet new friends. Since the farm ties us to home more regularly now, we enjoy meeting new friends when they book our property. :-)

Why they chose this property

We purchased this farm in April of 2020 and underwent a major lifestyle change! It was our dream to own a farm and have horses we could spend our days with. We were beyond thrilled to find such a beautiful oasis atop a mountain, yet so close to all of the restaurants, shops and services we use all the time.

What makes this property unique

We are so happy to have horses (both ours, and those who board with us but belong to others in our barn family), donkeys, goats, chickens, cats and our three Australian Shepherd pups. It's a lot of work, but it's worth it!

When it's time to relax, it's great to kick back with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine and take in the gorgeous views. You can even see the downtown Hartford skyline from our place. And in the summer (Memorial Day through Labor Day), it's awesome to jump into the heated pool when the weather is hot!
